Boston. Mass, Feb. 21.-For two weeks
John Lawrence Sullivan, who is again the
pride of the Hub. has been living quietly at
his fathers house, on Parnell street. and
Keeping very still. He announced. on
coming to Boston. that he was through with
rum for good, and set an example for
abstemlousness that awakened the envy of
his admiring friends who used to boast that
John l.. could knock out more drinks and
more men than any person In the world.
Durlng the past two days, however. the
champion has relaxed somewhat from the
Total abstinence bonds which held him. and
has been doing the town with the bows as of
Old. To-day he walked down Washington
street arm in arm with Billy Porter. the
notorious bank burglar. The face of tha
champion was red, his hat was pulled down
over his eyes so the cigar he held in his
mouth touched the brim, and his step was
just little unsteady, causing the people
who knew him to nudge one another and
say; "John L. is at it again; now look out
for rumpus."

horses in training. All of these, excepting
Gypsy Baron, formerly of Taets Greek,
and Sernader. were burned to death. Be-
sides there was a yearling colt the Inca,
by Imp. PiZarro. and saddle horse and all
other racing furniture, also most of the en-
ployes' clothing and books, all of which is a
total loss. 1t Is difficult to estimate the
loss, but it will reach $50, 600; fully in

A Novel Claim.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.-A resident of
Chicago has filed claim at the treasury
department for the redemptionof a,S10, 600
United States bond which he says he
swallowed in order to prevent its falling
into the hands of burglars. 1t appears that
while he was examining the bond in his
room at late hour at night he heard a
noise in the passage which he supposed was
made by thieves, and acting on the impulse
of the moment he chewed the bond into a
pulp and swallowed it. 1t was afterwards
discovered that there were no grounds for
his alarm. He now appeals to the govern
ment to make good his loss. The first
comptroller has the claim under con.
Slderation.

as legal holiday. The lobbyists have

The governor says he will probably make
two appointments on the board of railroad
commissioners Wednesday, and possibly
three. Who they will be is mystery, but
it is given out that Griggs and Abe Boynton
stand good show, and Van Epps, of Sioux
Falls, is making a lively canvass. The
governor spent quiet day in his Office at
the capitol to-day. He has the reins firmly
in his hands. and proposes to drive straight
ahead. He is making very favorable i'm

Hannafin will deliver his inaugural address.

Board Of trade sa.ouet.

NEW YORK, Feb. 21.-The annual dinner
of the New York board of trade and trans
portation was given tonight at the Hotel
Brunswick. Over 200 coveis were laid.
Capt. Ambrose Snow presided, flanked by
Gen. w. Z. Sherman and Hon. John II.
Reagan. Letters of regret from President
Cleveland, Secretary Bayard,. Postmaster
General Villas, Hon. J.G. Blaine and others
were read. Gen. Sherman responded to the
toast "Our Country" AS he arose he was
greeted with cheers. He referred to the
time when he was an Ohio boy, and it took
six weeks to come from Philadelphia. Now
a man could go to sleep in New York and
wake the next day in Ohio. The railroads
had changed the wild West of sixty years
ago into a civilized country. The country's
progress at times made him stand aghast.
He referred in humorous way to his
march through Georgia, and prophesied
better prospects for trade in the United
States.

OUR COAST DEFENsEs.

Needed to Protect the Seaports.


Needed to Protect the Seaports.
WASHINGTON, Feb. 21.--Admiral Porter
has written a letter to Congressman Law
ler on the importance of protecting the ap-
proaches to Boston, New York and other
cities with heavily armored monitors carry
ing the heaviest guns. He says that tor
pedoes cannot he relied upon; that during
the Russo-Turkish war, which is the only
one except our civil war we know of,
where torpedoes have been extensively
used, with the hundreds OF Whitehead tor
pedoes employed by the Russians against
the Turkish navy only one Turkish ship of
inferior quality was destroyed. During our
civil war. when the COnfederateS had their
rivers, harbors. bars. etc., obstructed by
torpedoes the United States lost but twenty
two vessels in spite of the great energy; and
intrepidity of the Confederates, and the ad-
miral says:
Il am quite satisfied that they were as well
prepared in those days for the defense of
their channels as we are to-day, and much
better provided with torpedo boats.'' Further
on Admiral Porter says: 81 do not think 1t
any violation OF confidence in me to say that
the German government in particular has at
this moment complete plans of all our ports
and every particular relation to the prin-
cipal harborS of the United States.'
The admiral further says; II don't suppose
it ever struck anybody that 1t would ever be
necessary to locate the heaviest guns on
Coney Island to prevent f1eer from ancnor-
ing at that point and firing into the city of
New York. There is another implement of
war which is now being experimental with
which may prove more destructive than even
the heavy rifled gun-that is the rifled mortar
Imagine twenty or thirty mortar boats being
under Coney Island and devastating the city
and country for miles around. You see, after
all the main defense for our coasts and har-
bors is the heavy ironclad monitor with the
most powerful guns, that can move from
point to point, and, like the turtle, carry its
defenses on its back
Boston, the admiral considers is ten
times worse off than New York. He does
not suppose there is a Bostonian at this
moment who realizes that single ironclad
could lay before the city. distance of five
miles, and knock the state house about the
ears of the inhabitants. The only remedy
for all this is fleet of ironclads

Stabbed to Death.
Special to the Globe.

LA CROSSE. Wis, Feb. 21.-At a late
hour Saturday night terrible murder was
committed at Bristol, small village south
of here. A party of men gathered at the
village store, playing cards and drinking.
Jonah Love and Ole Nelson, between whom
there was an old grudge, had quarrel and
after threatening and boasting began
scuf1ing. In few seconds Nelson
gave cry for help and
when the others rushed to interfere it was
discovered that his throat had been cut
from ear to ear with a pocket knife. He
died in few minutes. Love was arrested
Sunday and is in Jail. Nelson's friends
are greatly excited, and as all present had
been drinking, it will be difficult to get at
the facts: bat Love claims the deed was
done in self-defense.
